The ones u have all work great and are amazingly fast and durable it even blows tires on my slash, I use castle mamba systems and sometimes HobbywingWant to get back in rc. I had a rc nitro monster trucks and car in the past but now I want to get in rc electric and I want to know what is a good brand to get into
I like monster trucks and small trucks tooDo you prefer mt or what’s your favorite rig also what’s your driving style
So the Traxxas is a good one to get? I'm doing my homework on this ti make sure that I make the right decision. I saw the Traxxas Rustler 4x4 VXL on yhe internet and I looked at it on YouTube and it looks like what I'm looking for. The other thing I want to know about is a charger and batterys also. I'm new on the electric side.We have a 2wd brushed rustler as well as an Arrma big rock. The big rock would be more comparable to the rustler 4x4 vxl.
Arrma and Traxxas are both good quality brands with plenty of parts available should something break.
We generally run the big rock on a 2s battery and that thing rips.
That’s another consideration; batteries and a charger if you’re just getting into the electric side of things….
Educate yourself on the whole Traxxas thing there is a thread titled bye bye Traxxas that digs into it.
You will certainly find people who have thoughts on the “Best” brand, and there experiences I think depend on care and use of said car; that’s not to say a dud doesn’t slip through every now and again.
I think between Arrma and Traxxas you have two good brands to choose between
I am not sure if I can say that arrma fury was the weakest rc I had but it's definitely fragile. But I can definitely say that it's the flimsiest by far. Terrible shock towers, leaky shocks, plastic drive train, ball ends popping out...Arrma is not trash, weird comment, I have older and brand new Arrma and Traxxas, My older Arrma Fury has lasted 12 years with no issues, not driven the whole time, but used an ok amount and I have a newer Arrma Granite 4x4 3S that I drive hard, again zero issues and what a beast it is with 3S Power. Now I do not hate on Traxxas, but I will say, our older Slash has been repaired many times uses a lot like the Fury ? and ourView attachment 164070 newer Bandit VXL, broke 1st time out and it was not cheap to repair, Minor hit broke all kinds of front end parts and two shocks, total repair $48.00 in parts. Arrma seems way way better to my son and I. Just saying, Flaps
Non of those issues with my Fury and my Granite is crazy well made and fast.I am not sure if I can say that arrma fury was the weakest rc I had but it's definitely fragile. But I can definitely say that it's the flimsiest by far. Terrible shock towers, leaky shocks, plastic drive train, ball ends popping out...

Having said that, Traxxas 2wd line has it's weaknesses too
